So, as the ticker to the right creeps down into the single digits today...we officially get our BIB numbers for IM Florida. This is a big day for many reasons...
1. it's finally beginning to sink in that I am going to do an ironman
2. This is the bib number that I will eventually put on my wall in my apartment, maybe along with the swim cap and wristband
3. This is the race # that I have been waiting for to tell everyone about so they can keep track of me on 11/4/06 from points all over the world.
Kinda cool huh? So there it is. Number 169. Wow. Cool :)
I leave in less than a week and the taper and rest are finally beginning to kick in. Stay tuned to see what happens next Saturday :) I won't dissappoint.

me and Comm are doing the Gatorade swim on Wednesday... look for us!
i'm reserving my comment on your bib number...
Here's your verse of the day for number 169:
Genesis 6:9 (New International Version)
This is the account of Noah. Noah was a righteous man, blameless among the people of his time, and he walked with God.
Hi Travis,
you don't know me, I'm a local rochester age grouper. I just wanted to say good luck this weekend.
Travis, wow - what a performance! You rocked. Congratulations on your excellent time and race.
Congratulations!
I see that you hit your top 4 goals, and maybe top 5 depending upon what the other young studs did. Outstanding!
Congrats Travis! You are an IRONMAN!
Results are now up on the Ironman Florida web page. I see that you *were* top 10 (sixth!) in your division - congratulations! Top 5 goals hit!
